Elvis, Garth And The RIAA

Normally we won't go into this subject, but EPE had a nice from Garth regarding all the commotion among Elvis-fans. His answer on a question from Billboard Magazine:
The Beatles are the only act ahead of you. Do you feel any need to catch them?
"No. I don't know why you're asking me this, because I'm never going to be on the Beatles' [level] in my mind. If I am to someone else out there, thank you, that's flattering, but I'll never believe it. And the RIAA was sweet to give us the largest-selling solo act in history, but I think we all know it's Elvis. It's just the method of counting wasn't as certifiable then as it is now. So it's cool and everything, but at the same time, please know I am seeing it with a very real look".
